All law is enforced morality

One of the first axioms of government is that all law is enforced morality.

Secularists and confused Christians seem to have forgotten this, whether willingly or not. We hear many and various in different contexts saying things such as, "the law should not be a tool for one group to enforce its morality upon others".

Without enforced morality, there is no law. That issue is not up for debate.

The only issue up for debate is what kind of morality will be enforced. Not whether to enforce morality, but which morality to enforce.
